Restricted query

[Josué Maldonado]

Hello list,

This is an inventory system where some users are restricted to view only
certain suppliers, those restrictions are in a table called pedusers
(username,suppl ierallowed), there are other kind of "superuser" who are
not restricted, actually I created another table for them (userexcept).
To select restricted rows I use this code:

select * from prvdor
where prvtiprov = 2 and
prvpk in
(select usr_prvdor from peduser where
usr_login = 'default')
I think I would write this in a return set function instead but I would
like to know others ways to write a SQL sentence to return the rows
according users permission/restrictions.
Thanks in advance for your comments

You could use a view and give group rights to a particular view.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddres sHere" to ma*******@postg resql.org)

And what about restricting UPDATE/DELETE queries too. Can I still use
VIEWs?
No but that you could use a function for.

And what about restricting UPDATE/DELETE queries too. Can I still use
VIEWs?
